[Identification of monkey chromosomes by differential staining with Romanovsky--Giemza stain. III. Cercopithecus

|January 1, 1977
Abstract:
The distribution of the G-bands in chromosomes of bone marrow cells of Cercopithecus aethiops was studied by means of differentail staining with the Romanovsky - Gimsa dye. All the homologous chromosome pairs were identified and morphometric parameters were detected. The comparison of C. aethiops karyotypes with those of Macacca mulatta has shown that they are different in numbers and in the character of banding pattern of the most chromosomes. Both species revealed 12 pairs of chromosomes similar in their morphology and parameters.

Describing the number and physical features of chromosomes can reveal abnormalities that underlie genetic diseases. This description is facilitated by special staining techniques that produce a particular banding pattern on each chromosome. State-of-the-art techniques make this approach even more powerful, enabling the detection of individual genes that cause disease.A Simple Chromosome Staining Technique Provides Valuable Scientific InsightSome genetic diseases can be detected by looking at...
02:04Polytene Chromosomes
Polytene chromosomes are giant interphase chromosomes with several DNA strands placed side by side. They were discovered in the year 1881 by Balbiani in salivary glands, intestine, muscles, malpighian tubules, and hypoderm of larvae Chironomus plumosus. Hence, these are also called "Salivary gland chromosomes." These are found in insects of the order Diptera and Collembola; in certain organs of mammals; and synergids, antipodes of flowering plants. Polytene chromosomes are also regularly...
